It would be recalled that the tragedy struck in the Ibara area of Abeokuta, Ogun State, on New Year’s Eve when Kehinde and his wife Bukola, were murdered and burnt beyond recognition in their residence in Abeokuta.

Their son was reportedly taken away by the suspected assassins after setting their house on fire, to clean any possible trace of their action within the community.

It was gathered that the couple were murdered in their private residence in Abeokuta shortly after returning from a New Year crossover church service.

Their remains were later packed by policemen and health officials who visited the scene after news of the act threw the entire state into mourning.

The body of their son, Oreoluwa, who watched as the gunmen killed his parents, was late found two days later, drowned in a river that was a few meters away from the house.
